My Role of Possibility

I am so grateful to be doing what I love.

Everyone I know is so grateful to be doing what they love.

Everyone that I don’t know, all over the world, is so grateful to be doing what they love.

---------------

This is how my life changed.

I didn’t know it was possible, but it was.

I began going within to discover what I was doing here and what my purpose was.

I developed a consistent practice, because I did not like the way things were turning out for me.

I found a deep peace when I contemplated my place from within.

I was shown how to take it into the world, and now I am doing what I love.

Each step is being shown to me as I need it.

I receive ideas and write them down and turn them into songs, chants and fingerplays and little music reading readiness books.

I design displays for them.

I design teaching modules so that they can be shared more and more widely.

And you know what?

I am having the best time of my life.

Every day, I an involved in some phase of creating the life that I love living.

And the steps so far, tell me that there are even better times ahead.

All from going within.

My outside surroundings certainly didn’t point me in this direction.

So I discovered how to get here a different way.

You can, too.

Because what you are and what you love are already deeply established within you.

Expanded Peace

I feel my new life of expanded peace.

Everyone I know feels their new life of expanded peace.

Everyone I don’t even know, all over the planet, feels their new life of expanded peace.

--------------

As I focus on the “within” and find my peace there, it spreads out into my life.

It is all around me as I take in my new surroundings.

I receive unexpected help.

People are kind to me and explain what I need to know.

I receive inspiration everywhere I look.

I meet new friends who are able to benefit from my experiences.

I feel fulfilled in my new surroundings.

People tell me interesting and helpful things.

I feel comfortable.

I love where I am.

I love who I am.

It is good to be me.

I feel so delightfully at peace.

Calm

I feel so calm today, it is easy to take deep breath.

Everyone I know feels so calm today, it is easy for them to take a deep breath.

Everyone I do’t even know, all over the planet, feels so calm today, it is easy for them to take a deep breath.

------------

The sky is blue and clouds are forming with the promise of rain.

It is the next day as I continue writing, and after a clear night, it has rained all morning.

Two deer are feeding at the edge of our meadow.

Birds are calling and flying over.

I am grateful for the peace I have been cultivating for so many years and for the many ways it is manifesting now.

Real Communication is What I Deserve

I am so grateful that I can tell the difference between communication and miscommunication.

Everyone I know is so grateful that they can tell the difference between communication and miscommunication.

Everyone I don’t even know all over the planet is so grateful that they can tell difference between communication and miscommunication.

------------

Communication happens when there are two or more willing parties.

If one party is only pretending, then contact does not necessarily include communication.

For years, we welcomed the rare communication from loved ones.

Then when crisis struck them, the foundation for communication that would have been provided during normal times was missing.

I was so sorry that our efforts at comfort were inadequate for people we once considered so important in our lives.

When I examined it deeply in mediation, I found that we were indeed experiencing what was intended.

Deprivation was the inevitable result both ways.

However, I find that I am released from the necessity of any more hopes for pretend communication.

The real thing works just fine for me.

I am grateful to know where to direct my energies and to know the feeling of real appreciation.

My Own Peace

I am breathing deeply into my own peace.

Everyone I know is breathing deeply into their own peace.

Everyone I don’t even know, all over the world, is breathing deeply into their own peace.

----------------

My own peace comes from within.

I am alert to what is not peaceful in my life, and I can replace it.

It is remarkable to me that I have been able to learn how to do this.

Thanks to the wonderful authors and workshop leaders who have shared their experiences and techniques.

So now, I, too, can turn inward to my very core and find the light and joy, and harmony, and peace which is there always.

It is like an undisturbed cavern which is always accessible to me.

Even in caves which are open to the public for tours, the temperature is always about 58 degrees Fahrenheit.

So, in my mental recesses, there is always light, harmony, peace within.

I can quiet my thought, either with deep breaths, or by remembering a loving phrase about myself.

I can turn to what is good and true about me, from my Source.

Then I am connected to my peace.

It overflows me and spills into the world around me.

Everyone and everything that is brought into contact with me comes through that peace, as long as I maintain it and every time I turn to it.
